VOLUNTEER IN COORDINADORA BARRIOS

ASOCIACION CULTURAL EUROACCION MURCIA

Coordinadora de Barrios

El Palmar, Murcia, Spain

Description

The schedule of volunteer activities will be between 30 and 38 hours per week. You can find information about the project in the this link: https://secure.smore.com/n/v1jex-volunteer-in-coordinadora-barrios (It includes an online application form that is recommended to complete in order to participate in the selection process). This project will be carried out mainly in a neighborhood of El Palmar called Los Rosales. This neighborhood has been characterized for decades by the process of socioeconomic decline, suffering major problems related to social exclusion and general deterioration that affects many levels: urban, physical and social. The volunteers will participate mainly in supporting the extracurricular educational program and in the intervention and supervision of children, youth and adults at risk of social exclusion.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

The volunteers who participate in our project will live in a flat located in the center of the city of Murcia together with other volunteers. Each volunteer will have his/her own room to guarantee privacy and space. The coordinating organization will pay the rent of the apartment and the bills on a monthly basis. This project covers also the costs of food (€184 per month), pocket money (€186 per month), local transport, a medical insurance and your travel expenses from where you live to Cartagena and from Cartagena to your place.

Training during the activity

The volunteer will participate in the On arrival and midterm training (midterm evaluation) organized by the Spanish National Agency.

Participant profile

This project is aimed at young people between 18 and 30 years old who have not participated in any European volunteering project (EVS or ESC) before. Our association will prioritize the selection of young people with fewer opportunities, young people who face geographic, economic and/or educational barriers. We are looking for dynamic open-minded people who are willing to share their opinions and ideas and that they feel comfortable working with children and young people. It is very important that our volunteers have a strong maturity, emotional balance and flexibility to adapt to the work.
